The guy with one of the largest walls ever built, tells us that walls are evil.
His church has more gas guzzling planes and cars than all the other churches combined. Now he says we should not be using fossil fuels..
Of all the things Jesus had distain for, hypocrisy was the worst.

Like so many other clueless morons, there is no such thing as a fossil fuel.

I wonder how Francis transported all his Amazonian Indians and their pachamama idols to Rome for his Amazonian Synond.

By canoes?

Hasn’t the Vatican proved itself inept with investment advice? The hubris is deafening.

Ive been in the basement vaults. Not all of course. Atmospherically controlled to the T. Take away their reliance on fossil fuel and half the Irreplaceable manuscripts would rot in months.

I’m OK with the Vatican divesting of fossil fuels. But no so-called pope is going to tell me what to do.

His church has more gas guzzling planes

The Pope charters a plane from Alitalia when he travels; he doesn't have a personal airplane. The Vatican might have a helicopter for the Pope to travel around Rome. but that's it. It's possible that an institution like Notre Dame has an airplane of its own, but that belongs to Notre Dame, not the church.

As for cars, diocesan priests and probably most bishops pay for their own cars out of their own pockets.
